I've read many books that I love. Sometimes I'll see a book that I've already read, and buy it though I already own a copy.
The reason I buy the book, is that in my mind, maybe someone I'll meet or persuade someone to read that book, and I can give it to them.
Is this weird?

I had sought out writers for an adult story more than a few times this past year on this site called Upwork, and I've been notified that the listing has just been deleted for violating the site's terms of service.
Is there anywhere I can go to seek people out to write anything erotic?

Best answer:
The Ides of March, according to the ancient Roman calendar is the 15th day of March. Actually "in March, July, October, and May the Ides are on the 15th day" and it is on the 13th day for the other months. The Nones of the month are on the 5th if the Ides are on the 13th day and on the 7th if the Ides...

The Nones of the month are on the 5th if the Ides are on the 13th day and on the 7th if the Ides are on the 15th day. The Kalens is always the first of the month. The date was always referred as x days before the Kalens or Nones, or Ides of the month, or on the Kalens, or Nones or Ides.

Pick Me. It’s all I can do not to scream. I dig my nails into the marula oak of my staff and squeeze to keep from fidgeting. Beads of sweat drip down my back, but I can’t tell if it’s from dawn’s early heat or my heart slamming against my chest. Moon after moon I’ve been passed over.
Today can’t be the same.

Today can’t be the same.
I tuck a lock of snow-white hair behind my ear and do my best to sit still. As always, Mama Yemi makes the selection gruelling, staring at each girl just long enough to make us squirm.
Her brows knit in concentration, deepening the creases in her shaved head. With her dark brown skin and muted kaftan, Mama Yemi looks like any other elder in the village. You would never guess a woman her age could be so lethal.
“Ahem,” Agba clears her throat in front of the ahere, a nost so subtle reminder that she’s already passed the test. She smirks at us as she twirls her hand-carved staff, eager to see which one of us she gets to defeat in our graduation match. Most girls cower at the prospect of facing Agba, but today I crave it. I’ve been practicing and I’m ready. I know I can win.
“Yagha.”
Mama Yemi’s weathered voice breaks through the silence. A collective exhale echoes from the fifteen other girls who weren’t chosen. The name bounces around the woven walls of the reed ahere until I realise Mama Yemi’s called me.
“Really?”
Mama Yemi smacks her lips. “I can choose someone else –”
“No!” I scramble to my feet and bow quickly. “Thank you, Mama. I’m ready.”

When I look at examples I can understand them but cannot find the mistakes in my own work. there is a few. Maybe with someones outside eyes can take a look at a few sentences I have that are showing passive voice.

I am a heavy fan of the well known GoT tv series and I wanted to read the books while waiting for the final season and it is not easy to find them where I am from but I found them finally
